Malaysia Peaceful Assembly Act, are we becoming a police state?

ZZZzzz, I just read the pissful assembly act tabled at Parliament. We will not be allowed to assemble and voice our opinion at

 1) Dams, reservoirs and water catchment areas
 2) Water treatment plants
 3) Electricity generating stations
 4) Petrol stations
 5) Hospitals
 6) Fire stations
 7) Airports
 8)Railways
 9)Land public transport terminals
 10)Ports, canals, docks, wharves, piers, bridges and marinas
 11)Places of worship
 12)Kindergartens and schools

 I think it's not the end of the world because there are still plenty of places where we can assemble. In example, we can still assemble in

 1) Public toilet
2) Stadium
3) In front of the Bungalow of corrupted officials
4) etc


 What irritate me about this act is we need to like notify the Officer in Charge of the Police District (OCPD) within 30 days before the date of an assembly. Oh well, why do we need to inform the public servants of our assembly 30 days in advance? I just don't get it. Furthermore, we need to wait like 12 days for the permission. Oh well, when shit hits the fan, and they are enough angry and hungry people on the street whereas the well connected greedy bastard are enjoying the cheesecake in their bungalow, nobody is gonna give a shit about the act. They will roam the street in anger of everything as evident in middle east and Europe. My humble advice to government, Make sure 99.999% of the Malaysian citizen can put food on the table and you will never have to worry about people violating the act.

 Also, Age of 15 below not allowed, this is understandable because they are just kids and may get hurt or easily become troublemaker ( IE the UK riot/looting).

 Finally, are we becoming police state as the crony capitalistic economy goes into perpetual contraction ?
